Browser Benchmarks
SunSpider JavaScript Benchmark Results
I have run the following benchmarks on the three browsers that run on OSX.
I did not test the Chrome browser but I suspect it would perform like Safari given the Web Kit roots. I also have the developer tools enabled on Safari and the Firebug plugin in Firefox.
